Speaking of the Lineage of the Twelve True Palaces, they have really been stuck in their ways for far too long.

After being king of the monkeys for a long time, he really started to think that there were no tigers in the mountains.

Furthermore, the new leaders of the Lineage are all newly appointed, and therefore they are all filled with inexplicable "confidence" in their own strength.

Therefore, when faced with such a fierce battle between Lin Yu and the black-robed Daoist, the four sect leaders were able to risk their lives to rush forward and try to negotiate with the two.

If this were in the Netherworld Immortal Realm outside, I'm afraid no cultivators would even bother to come forward.

After all, most of the cultivators outside the Twelve True Palaces are normal people, and anyone with eyes can see that the black-robed Daoist and Lin Yu are extremely powerful.

In a fantasy world where strength reigns supreme, daring to go looking for trouble in this situation is definitely asking for trouble.

However, because the Twelve True Palaces had been closed off for too long, and the cultivators of the Lineage held absolute power in this land, coupled with the long-term infiltration of the evil power of the black-robed Daoist, their way of thinking could no longer be measured by the way of thinking of ordinary cultivators.

Seeing the fierce battle between Lin Yu and the black-robed Daoist, the leaders of the Lineage went up to say a few words.

In their view, with their current status, they could absolutely suppress this unprecedented battle with ease.

Putting everything else aside, their status as the heads of the Lineage alone is enough to give them prestige.

Lin Yu couldn't fathom this twisted way of thinking.

After all, such a situation was unheard of and unseen in his era of the Three Thousand Immortal Realms.

This wasn't the first time Lin Yu had taken action on such a large scale in a fantasy world. Although those with Lin Yu's strength would always restrain themselves to avoid accidentally harming others, considering the impending fate of the Twelve True Palaces, Lin Yu had no intention of holding back.

After all, once he reaches the array outside the Twelve True Palaces and activates it with the key, the entire Twelve True Palaces will sink into endless darkness, which is no different from destroying the world directly.

Therefore, we're going to be gentler now, which will only leave these unfortunate cultivators with a complete corpse.

If the black-robed Daoist hadn't rushed forward so recklessly, Lin Yu wouldn't have minded this little thing. But unfortunately, the black-robed Daoist had already made his move.

Lin Yu's temper is definitely not good, especially when faced with such deliberate provocation.

Thinking back to all the nonsense the black-robed Daoist had told him, and how he had naively believed some of it, Lin Yu felt utterly ridiculous and immediately attacked without restraint.

Therefore, Lin Yu was quite shocked when she saw the reckless leaders of the Lineage rushing up to her. It was the first time she had ever seen such eager "thinking" of someone.

Not to mention Lin Yu, even the black-robed Daoist, a "native" of the Twelve True Palaces, can no longer understand the thoughts of the leaders of these Lineage.

Moreover, given the black-robed Daoist's strength, he didn't even bother to understand the thoughts of these ants; in his view, there was no need for him to try.

"Roll!"

Before one of the Lineage leaders could finish his rambling, the black-robed Daoist priest, already annoyed, lashed out with a palm strike without hesitation.

Lin Yu could easily deflect this palm strike, but unfortunately, the leaders of the Lineage were not so fortunate.

Even if all four of them combined their strength, it wouldn't be enough to match this power.

Therefore, upon meeting, the four arrogant and haughty sect leaders were unceremoniously driven away without even leaving a complete sentence.

Unfortunately, the current situation leaves no time for these overconfident sect leaders to consider whether their current appearance is shameful.

The moment their bodies touched the black-robed Daoist's power, they were sent flying like kites with broken strings, blood gushing uncontrollably from their mouths.

Facing the black-robed Daoist's palm strike head-on, the leaders of the Lineage were naturally no match. In the time it took to deliver one blow, they were already on the verge of death, barely breathing.

The cultivators from the Lineage, having just watched their sect leaders ascend to the heavens intending to argue their point, had already halted their retreat.

Before he could even take three breaths, he was forced to start moving again.

Even the sect leader was ruthlessly ousted and is on the verge of death, let alone these insignificant nobodys?

Most of the cultivators from the Lineage immediately sprang into action again, abandoning even their own sect leaders and fleeing towards the distant barrier.

Meanwhile, some cultivators from the privileged class were gloating, thinking that now that the leaders of the Lineage were dead, they could take advantage of the situation and sit in the position of leader.

The reason why the cultivators of the Lineage have become like this is definitely because there is an immense "evil" inherent in human nature!

Otherwise, even at this critical juncture of life and death, many of them would still be gloating over the fact that the sect leader would be killed by the black-robed Daoist with a single palm strike, and that they would take over the position.

It can only be said that the many cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces have long been rotten to the core.

It's precisely because they were trapped in the Twelve True Palaces and couldn't leave that they would likely be no good even if they were in a normal cultivator world.

For countless diligent cultivators outside, Lin Yu and the black-robed Daoist's actions were seen as heroic deeds of eliminating a scourge for the people.

Of course, neither the black-robed Daoist nor Lin Yu had the mind to think about this at the moment, since the thoughts of ants were simply unimportant to them.

The black-robed Daoist's gaze remained fixed on Lin Yu's palm. If looks could kill, he would have killed Lin Yu ten thousand times over by now.

"Huff... huff... huff..." The black-robed Daoist priest was panting heavily.

He hadn't actually been fighting Lin Yu for very long, less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, but the intensity of the battle was extremely high. In the blink of an eye, he had already consumed more than half of his spiritual energy.

But Lin Yu, that bastard, remained completely calm and collected, seemingly having expended little energy, which only made the black-robed Daoist grit his teeth in frustration.

Unfortunately, even though he was itching to do something about Lin Yu, there was nothing he could do.

After witnessing Lin Yu's "true strength," the black-robed Daoist was surprised to find that he was indeed no match for him.

However, being a truly wicked and treacherous person, he immediately decided to be flexible and take the initiative to appease Lin Yu first.
